History

In Romagna, northern Italy, the Diocese of Imola (Latin: Diocesis Imolensis) is a Latin Church see of the Catholic Church, suffragan to the Archdiocese of Bologna. Its earliest allegiance was to the metropolitan of Milan; it then answered to the Archbishop of Ravenna until 1582, when Pope Gregory XIII raised Bologna to an archbishopric and gave it two suffragans, Imola and Cervia. Pope Clement VIII, however, restored both to the metropolitanate of Ravenna in 1604.
